"I can't figure out if you're a detective or a pervert."Returning to his idylic hometown of Lumberton to visit his family, Jeffrey Beaumont (Kyle MacLachlan) stumbles upon a human ear in a field. The police are no help so With the help of a friend Sandy (Laura Dern), Jeffrey decides to undertake his own investigation, starting with Dorothy (Isabella Rossellini), a nightclub singer who 'sandy thinks may have something to do with it. Unfortunately this leads them into a dark underworld and brings them into conflict with pychopath Frank Booth (Dennis Hopper) who holds something over Dorothy.
Lynch can weave a story into a nightmare like no other director, get ready for the everyday to become strange, and depravity to become the norm. A brave mix of horror, sado-masochistic sex and extreme black comedy, that digs into a world that exists out of sight of the normal suburban existence.
